I am thoroughly schmediculous! Last night after coming home from work, I did my normal routine: 1. Make dinner for the moms and I...2. Eat said dinner with the moms....3. Go to room to check messages and return calls. Well...when I finished with my home phone, I went for my cell phone and realized I didn't have it! Ack! Where the fuck was it!?!! I took out all of the contents to my purse -No luck. I checked in the hallway where I had put my purse down -Nope. I looked in my bedroom...searched my bed -No and no. Finally I decided that it was no use worrying about it, the last time I had seen it was in my friends car, so I figured I would call her in the morning before she went off to work. ...It was probably there anyhoo... I thought of an article I had read about managing stress, and it had said that at a certain point in the evening, you have to tell yourself that it's late, and there's nothing more that you can do about it tonight, now is the time to take care of yourself and get some rest...and that is the absolute best thing you can do to handle your problems. Rest now, so that in the morning, you will have the energy to tackle it again. But try as I might...I had the worst night of sleep. I kept waking up. Tossing and turning. I had bad dreams. I felt stressed. Really stressed. I almost went over to her house just to make sure that her car was locked. (at the time..that's where I thought my phone was) I totally ran through all of the worst scenarios in my head. The million dollar phone bill that was bound to happen. How I never ended up downloading all of those pictures I took on it of my mom and I in the hospital! Bah! Major life moments gone forever. Well...I called my friend in the morning. And she didn't have it. Then I called my phone twice just to make sure that it really was on silent like I had remembered putting it on...(I vowed never to put my phone on silent again...that way if I lost it I could at least call it to find it! -Who cares if other people get annoyed by my ringtone -ACDC's "Back In Black") Anyhoo...No Dice. I couldn't find it. So I went to the bathroom. And when I came back to my room...fully contemplating the shittiness of having to call cingular and tell them to put a hold on my cell phone and how I at least had insurance....well there it was. ON MY BED! RIGHT WHERE I HAD BEEN A MINUTE AGO! WTF!?! I don't remember how it got there. I only know that I stressed out over it all night long and I was lying on it! Bah! How ridiculous! And now...I can relax.
- Mood: thankful
